  • In this video we wake up at our camp on Bethel Ridge in the Wenatchee National Forest. We continue on Section 2 on the WABDR towards Nile, WA where we get gas for the motorcycles. We continue back up into the mountains. We decide to bypass Baby Head Hill which is a very steep rocky section. The bypass route was nice and brings us right into Ellensburg, WA where we get gas and enjoy pizza for lunch. This marks the end of Section 2 and begins Section 3 of the WABDR. We head back up into the hills where we find another ridge side camp for the night.
    Thank You For Being Here.
    *My name is Brian. I started living full time in a self built camper van in 2014 in my hometown of San Diego, CA. I hit the road full-time in 2015 to pursue seasonal work and travel around the U.S. I find free camping on public land and enjoy photography, hiking, biking, and kayaking in nature. Join me on my adventures.
    Thanks for watching!

    I don't ride motorcycles but man do I want to do this after watching these videos. I have to agree those campsite view were amazing on the video can only imagine what it was like being there. Usually don't sit through a 30 minute video, I did this one!!!! Enjoy the road and stay safe.

    I swear I'm riding right along with you while sitting in my recliner directly under my ceiling fan. Watching your video on a wide screen TV brings me right into the scenery. I'm taken back 45 years and and Riding Right beside you On my Yamaha 250 DT1 off road bike. I used to travel the back roads of northern Minnesota like this. Sadly all my motorcycle friends were highway cruisers So typically I was alone. I moved on up to 750 Hondas and rode for about 30 years, But always enjoyed Exploring the Lesser traveled roads better. I'm really enjoying your trip so much!

    Hey, glad you enjoyed some of our beautiful State. As I said before I'm in North Central Washington Northwest from Elenensburg. But as you are riding there are logging roads here that look like where you are riding now. I have my Chevy Silverado Pickup 4x4 and go out messing around out there in the woods. It's December 3rd here and we got a total of about 14 inches of snow. The Main roads are plowed 155 and Hwy 97 North to Canada and in good shape. Well enjoy the views. As always, "Enjoy The Adventure." 🤠👍✌
